Nick Cannon reveals he still talks to ex-wife Mariah Carey almost every day as they co-parent their twins
During a recent Us cover story, the comedian spoke exclusively about his life after divorce. During the conversation, Nick Cannon revealed that he still talks to his ex-wife, Mariah Carey, almost every day as they co-parent their twins.
Cannon said, “We were able to, kind of, move on and be amicable and be the best parents we can. And, like, to this day, man, we talk almost every day or every other day or, you know, just specifically just about the kids.”
“She knows how to hold on to her privacy in a way that you know. You feel like you know her, you feel like you understand, but she keeps all the things that are meaningful to her to herself.” He concluded, “I learned so much. I always say Mariah Carey was my greatest friend and my greatest teacher all at the same time.”
Talking about Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey’s relationship, it began in 2005 when the two first met at the Teen Choice Awards. Then, in 2008, the 45-year-old worked on Carey’s song “Bye Bye,” which brought them much closer, and just a few weeks later, the former couple secretly married in the Bahamas.
Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey have twins, Moroccan and Monroe, who were born on April 30, 2011, on the couple’s third wedding anniversary. In 2014, the former couple separated, with their busy schedules and mutual tension cited as the reasons. However, their legal divorce was finalized in 2016, well after their separation.
